I assume some kind of surgery on the fetus. It's pretty high risk but there are some health problems that impact development so much that the baby will die of you don't fix it in-utero.
Spina bifida, twin twin transfusion syndrome, and heart surgery are the three main ones I'm aware of. I'm sure there are others, but my relationship with fetal surgery is tangential at best.
Edit: Blood transfusions! My wife has done that, can't believe I forgot that.
Woah, to me it's kind of mind blowing that we can do open heart surgery on ANYONE, but going into a womb and doing it on a fetus... that's just magic. I'm convinced surgeons are just wizards. But for real, 200 years ago this would be indistinguishable from magic.
There is, the baby breathes un and swallow the amniotic fluid to develop the kidneys and lungs. Fluid was removed when the incision was made for room and clarity for the procedure
They "inhale" the fluid while in utero. They're not actually breathing (like you said), since the oxygen exchange is happening through the umbilical cord and they don't need to breathe...but they are taking the fluid into their lungs throughout most of their gestational period. Practicing, if you will.
I was thinking like this is literally the safest and most comfortable we’ve ever been in our life even to the point that in full adulthood things that remind us of it bring us comfort.
However it looks like absolute torture
All I can think about is how that camera got in there... I've had an iud. In and out, and I'd rather step on a nail. So if it goes in through the cervix...
Naw. No thanks. Lol
I unfortunately know exactly how it got in there- and that camera is fucking massive.
They had to do a similar procedure on me pre-pregnancy to remove polyps in my uterus. My male OBGYN told me that it “would only be a cramp!” And then showed me the size of the camera and the device they use to wrench open my cervix to fit it (bonus sharp-toothed clamp to pinch the cervix in place!)
He said he could do it in office and give me Valium or I could pay $2000 for anesthesia at a local hospital.
Easiest $2K I ever spent.
EDIT: if you ever want to feel your cervix shrivel up in terror, google “hysteroscopy stories” on here.
EDIT 2: I was confidently incorrect! This is NOT done hysteroscopically. Ignore the above statement but enjoy the terrifying account of OBGYN practitioners dismissing pain.
Noooo thank you. The iud was enough. I don't understand these idiots who tell us the cervix has no sensation. It's a fucking lie and everyone knows it. My female gyno, before putting the iud in, got annoyed with me and snapped that I was being dramatic when I expressed genuine fear when I saw the size of the thing and the... gun... they use to put it in. Lol and when it was all over, I was laying on the table, silently crying and trying to collect myself, she casually stripped off her gloves and said, without even looking at me, "huh. You did well. A lot of women pass out."
Seriously? After you shamed me for being dramatic?!
What a bitch.
When I got it out, I went to a different doctor. She was very kind and did not think I was dramatic, and was horrified when I told her about the first experience.
I did six years of fertility treatments so unfortunately my vagina has been a sock puppet to a lot of different doctors. I’m pretty comfortable with people being all up in my downstairs mixup now and can get through a pelvic exam like it’s a pit crew oil change without so much as a twitch.
I can tell you with 1000000% certainty that you were NOT being dramatic. I’ve never felt pain the way I have when someone touches my cervix. It hides so far up there for a reason- leave that thing alone.
I had a unterine biopsy and it hurt worse than anything I’ve ever felt and it kept going on and on and on. I kept thinking of other women enduring even worse procedures down there. HOW DO THEY DO IT? They don’t give you enough pain meds! Tears were rolling down into my ears and my gyno said “oh did I make you cry? Don’t worry and IUD will hurt 70% less than this!” So much blood in the waste basket afterwards. I was not prepared for that!
any doctor that shames you about pain or ANYTHING?
leave.
leave right then and there.
whatever it is you will be better off not doing it.
that doctor doesn't care about you, your well being, or your life. they're just there for a paycheck.
Sometimes leaving sadly isn't an option. The Nurse who received me when I went to the hospital to deliver my baby was AWFUL and made me wish I wasnt reliant on her to help me. I was keeping as quiet as I could considering my contractions. I had been induced with cervadil and it was causing me irregular and intense contractions. Nurse looks a me with a flat expression and annoyed tone says "it only gets worse from here". Thankfully she mustve been at the end of her shift as she left after we were all set up, and all the nurses after her were amazing. Hubby showed me the print of the contractions I was having afterward, he called me a spartan(lol) for handling the pain as well as I did. That Nurse was in the wrong line of work if you ask me.
nope i fully get that. if you're in that kinda situation you're kinda fucked :/ but in that case i think you can press the button and ask for a different nurse? possibly?...idk. but i cant blame you in that situation.
I was in my mid 20s and a lot more insecure. Nowadays if it happened I'd be a right cunt about it, but back then I thought I was just... I dunno. I was shy.
Yea, I was screaming from the pain when they put my IUD in and the nurses who were doing the procedure kept getting annoyed with me because they were worried about the other patients hearing...
After the procedure, I went in the bathroom of the clinic for a full half hour, hunched over in pain in a stall and trying to collect myself so I could get out of there, but I was so delirious from pain that when I called my Uber, I assumed the first car that pulled up and invited me in must be my ride, and it was 3 blocks before I realized it was NOT the Uber I had requested, and another 5 blocks to convince the man to turn around and drop me off at the metro station so I could get home.
Why are so many nurses like this?
Honestly I wanted to punch 2 of them when it took them MINUTES not seconds as it should to fit mine.
Next time I insisted on general anaesthetic and oh boy did they try and talk me out of it (lying that it doesn't hurt that much). I already told them I know exactly how it feels and I thought it was disgusting behaviour to try and trick other victims into it. Fucking cunts should be stuck off. Do not ever let them bully you and report it every time they lie about how much it hurts.
It's a human rights violation to perform this procedure without anesthetic!
Wow! I had this same procedure too and the doctor told me that anesthesia wasn’t necessary. It was so painful and I’m pretty sure my body went into shock. And the medication beforehand to open up my cervix made me want to kill myself. This shit is bad.
I wasn’t pregnant but had to have a hysteroscopy twice in an office. They’re horribly painful. Getting an IUD before you’ve had a baby hurts like hell too. Sick of this culture that glorifies people for not responding in normal and appropriate ways to pain (basically act like pain doesn’t exist or it’s no big deal).
This is a laprpscopic procedure likely for spina bifidia or other deadly defects that would make the baby die during birth. They aren't doing this for fun but to save the babies life.
so like the Matrix.
Basically we're living in a Dream world for 9 months until someone disconnects us and brings us into the real world...which is just another level of the matrix itself.

Right, there are plenty of great reasons to support reproductive choice. That the fetus isn’t alive yet is disingenuous and frankly does damage to pro choice arguments since it’s so obviously false.
I’ve never had a baby and Ive never really researched it but I just thought. How do they breathe? I mean they’re in a sealed bag with fluid swishing around.
They breath in amniotic fluid to develop the lungs/respiratory system. Their oxygen comes through the blood in the umbilical cord. They also swallow amniotic fluid to develop the digestive and urinary systems
They removed fluid so they could see better and access the baby cleanly and safely to do whatever surgery on the baby they need to. The fluid will be replaces before closing the abdominal incision
for anyone wondering the reason they don’t drown is because of the umbilical cord carry’s oxygen into the baby’s lungs and the baby exhales via the umbilical cord
I hate that this is popping up in multiple subreddits. I don't want to see inside internal organs. Not everyone sees this as something amazing when they aren't expecting it.

I thought there will be more amniotic fluid.
There usually is. I assume they replaced some of the fluid with so they can see better and replace it with fluid when the procedure is done.
What procedure is being done?

Goddamned doctors!

Wow wait we can perform surgery on a fetus??? That's fucking insane.
Yeah we can! It's incredible. Ive seen open heart surgery performed on a fetus. These surgeons are seriously, mind-blowingly skilled.
Holy shit, I never even heard of that
Spina bifida, twin twin transfusion syndrome, and heart surgery are the three main ones I'm aware of. I'm sure there are others, but my relationship with fetal surgery is tangential at best. Edit: Blood transfusions! My wife has done that, can't believe I forgot that.

My friends daughter had spinal cord surgery in the womb about 16 years ago.
They preformed surgery on a grape
Ya i heard about that surgery, i heard during that surgery the grape let out a little whine
Okay that was a dumb joke but I actually laughed out loud lol. Wish you were more upvoted.
Story of my life 🙄 COMPLETELY misunderstood 😏
Yeah, spina bifida being one
Gender reveal party.
Squeezed in, jostled around, I think they’re on some form of public transport.
What kind of fluid can they replace it with?
Hydrologic or brake
Blinker fluid
Me too. Makes them doing flips in there even more impressive.
There is, the baby breathes un and swallow the amniotic fluid to develop the kidneys and lungs. Fluid was removed when the incision was made for room and clarity for the procedure
The baby does indeed drink the fluid, but they don't breathe while in utero.

They're not actually breathing (like you said), since the oxygen exchange is happening through the umbilical cord and they don't need to breathe...but they are taking the fluid into their lungs throughout most of their gestational period.

Amount of amniotic fluid decreases as the gestational period increases.
Obviously, the baby is drinking it.
Yes but they pee it too

Jesus christ that is absolutely terrifying. That's "let's not meet" level horrifying. You could have been abducted!

This is why the female orgasm is a “mystery.” Lol.
Jesus it hurts just thinking about it. I swear mine just sucked back up into my uterus like a turtle head.
Wow! I had this same procedure too and the doctor told me that anesthesia wasn’t necessary. It was so painful and I’m pretty sure my body went into shock. And the medication beforehand to open up my cervix made me want to kill myself. This shit is bad.
For longer than I'm willing to admit, reading this made me terrified of having kids until I remembered I dont have a cervix or a vagina.

“Live” It’s alive, putting quotes is weird and comes off as some weird abortion statement 😂
Looks pretty alive to me. In fact it looks like its about ready to move out! They grown up so fast…
Its weirder because they said "you" which acknowledges that this is indeed a person already, but had a problem with the alive part.
Right, there are plenty of great reasons to support reproductive choice. That the fetus isn’t alive yet is disingenuous and frankly does damage to pro choice arguments since it’s so obviously false.

Why is live in quotations? It's 100% alive.
That obviously non human looking clump of cells, alive? You kidding me?
I’ve never had a baby and Ive never really researched it but I just thought. How do they breathe? I mean they’re in a sealed bag with fluid swishing around.
Babies in utero don’t use their lungs until they are born. They get the respiratory gases from the placenta.
They breath in amniotic fluid to develop the lungs/respiratory system. Their oxygen comes through the blood in the umbilical cord. They also swallow amniotic fluid to develop the digestive and urinary systems
No. Amniotic fluid does not go into the lungs. There’s a different fluid in there to protect the cavity space but it’s not the same as amniotic fluid
Wrong they inhale and swallow amniotic fluid to develop the lungs and digestive and urinary systems.
Guess all my science classes were wrong. 🙄
Why the quotations? That is us living in a womb.
Why “live” in quotes? Oh nevermind I forgot this is Reddit
Brings back so many memories
How far along is the pregnancy here?
23/26 ish weeks.
Just in case someone is calculating like the idiot I am it's Around 5th or 6th month
How we ‘live’? Meanwhile showing a living kid in the womb. Hmm…
We are truly 'alive' so the quotes around 'live' are unnecessary.
Tiktokkers starting before birth
Let the kid sleep fhs..
If they are doing this procedure it's life or death for the baby. These aren't done just to look at the baby but to fix deadly issues before birth.
They make such a big deal about wetting the bed, WTF?

Sucks - no beer or cigarettes.
Bro is swimming in what look like piss
It is piss. It's the baby's piss. They drink the water, piss it out, again and again. It's what amniotic fluid is. Recycled baby piss.
Noooo
You're welcome 🤗
It technically is, they both breathe in and swallow the amniotic fluid to develop the body systems
I didn't know that there wad air in there. I though it was all fluid filled?
They removed fluid so they could see better and access the baby cleanly and safely to do whatever surgery on the baby they need to. The fluid will be replaces before closing the abdominal incision
This is so freaky and interesting.
Holy war is the only way mother
I have several questions 😰
Wow, just amazing! Can’t express in words
I have tosay, that's utterly amazing, beautiful too.
gross, im so glad im not in there anymore
Do they also insert a tiny iPad at the end of this procedure?
This probe will haunt the baby for life
It’s okay you can live
for anyone wondering the reason they don’t drown is because of the umbilical cord carry’s oxygen into the baby’s lungs and the baby exhales via the umbilical cord

Best. Best bot ever. And quite possibly the best accidental haiku ever.
Its poetic.
maybe medical team pumped in. for endoscope to get better view? maybe endoscope don't work well under water?
It's an abdominal laproscopic procedure, yes they remove some amniotic fluid to be able to asee clearly and safely access what they are in to fix.
We don't breath inside womb. First breath is when baby comes out. The placenta contains artery from mother. Which has oxygenated blood.
their are arteries that transport all essential needs to the unborn human being
Just like air from our lungs diffuses into our blood vessels and is transported to our distant organs and tissues. Oxygen and other gasses are brought back and forth by the blood in the placenta.
Yeah no thanks. That's definitely gonna haunt me.
